Dr. Ferri's research program centers on Italian language pedagogy, modern literature, 19th-20th century opera, Italian politics, and the complex relationship between Italian intellectuals and Fascism. His scholarly output demonstrates deep engagement with authors like Manzoni and Gadda, while extending to Italian pop culture and international business language education.
